Jacobs ladder had quite a few more scenes in it that were cut because test audiences found them too disturbing, theres a whole extra sequence between the meeting with the chemist and him returning home that you can find in the deleted scenes on youtube. Honestly I always thought that the demons and horror elements were creative, but ultimately a bit tame. The intro is really strong with the subway bit and all the anti-drug posters, and then the car scene is fantastic but after that the whole thing kind of loses steam with the kid and ex-wife dream sequence. It was too grounded to be a surrealist film but also too surreal to be a grounded film, it could have done with being trimmed of the ending and dead kid story and focused more on the other story lines.

Also Tim Robbins has the most unconvincing fake laugh in the movie I've ever heard.

Enterprise is so unintentionally hilarious because of things like the sex airlock, especially the fact that Dr Phlox is banned from it for not being hot enough, so he gets a little window to do his scenes for it. The funniest moment in the entire show is the bit where Hoshi's shirt gets fully ripped off while crawling around in vents for zero reason, or the reveal in the mirror universe episodes with the womens uniforms just having no torso? It really does it to such a severe degree that it makes a rather forgettable show about Star Trek dealing with 9/11 endlessly rewatchable in "So bad its good" way.

Sidenote I always thought the funniest thing in DS9 was Jake motherfucking Sisko running around in the background being a smooth-talking Dom-Jot hustler poet who immediately goes from getting a Dabo Girl girlfriend at like 16 to hitting on Kira the next episode because of Mrs Rodenberry's psychic pheromones.

I'm going as King Harold Godwinson. Am I a moron? Does ANYONE know who that is?

Any UK/France/Ireland school goers will have had 1066 drilled into their skulls for about a year.

But will we ever get the mythical third pronoun slot? "All" is not the same as he/she/them and I got a lot of pushback on it back when the lemmy was new.
